How do I give a user access to specific functionality within an application?
A. Specific functionality within a FINRA application is called a privilege. A user will be granted access to a particular functionality within an application when you give him/her “use” entitlement to the application and the privilege within that application. The default entitlement for all applications and privileges is “none”, which means that the user cannot access that functionality, e.g., if a user needs to view individuals’ information in Web CRD, when you create the user’s account, you will give him/her “use” entitlement to the CRD application, “use” entitlement to the Individual section of privileges, and “use” entitlement to the View Individual Information privilege. If a user has “use” entitlement to a privilege and no longer needs to access that functionality, you should change the entitlement to “none”. That prohibits the user from accessing that functionality.
